If you know something I do not, you better start talking what sort of numbers did a similer set up put down with 200cc darts? You seem like you know.

Well, let me think.

Have not had drag radials or slicks for a while so no track time.

MSD coil went out a week ago, took it to the shop, freaking car ran fine for a week.

I pick it up, drive it 10 miles, coil totally goes out. So I ended up changing it myself.

Rear end needed fixed, it was leaking fluid.

Transmission is still running as normal.

Engine has 16k on it now and is driven quite a bit, 20mpg~

Exhaust has a small pin hole in it, need to get that welded.

Overall, as far as the engine goes, it is still running strong, power train is still holding together. SO overall it's still going good, trying to get to the track appears to be like pulling teeth I have been trying to get back for two years

I think I am going to give the car a good scrubbing before winter hits, next 50 degree day that comes, I feel like I have not had anytime for it.
